CVE-2026-54060

HIGH

Pillow: `FontFile.compile()`: `Image.new()` called without `_decompression_bomb_check()`

Title source: cna
STIX 2.1

Description

Pillow is a Python imaging library. Prior to 12.3.0, PIL/FontFile.py FontFile.compile() assembled per-glyph images into a combined bitmap with Image.new("1", (xsize, ysize)) without calling Image._decompression_bomb_check(), allowing a font to trigger excessive allocation during conversion or saving. This issue is fixed in version 12.3.0.
